The Roade Compe I listed recently! Thank you!
Hello Breadfan,
this serial number can be confusing because it starts with "KS". It is a Nishiki brand, so the assumption based on the serial number is that the frame was made by Kawamura Sangyo. If the frame was from Kawamura and with a Nishiki badge from 1972, then there should be six digits following the KS. There are only five digits.
This frame was probably manufactured by Katakura. The 1972 Nishiki Professional and Road Compe models were made by Katakura.
